This large and unusual American Art Deco desk was designed by Frank Fletcher and manufactured by Fletcher Aviation in Pasadena, California. A design patent number 140,501 was issued to Fletcher in 1945. The triangular desk, which has been refinished in its original natural walnut, floats on a brushed steel inset base. Nickel brass pulls and fluted corners mark this as Fletcher's best. The middle drawer has a brass plaque "Fletcher Aviation- Putting Wings on the World". The desk is 72" wide, 48" deep, and 30" high.
